ArenaNet introduces password
blacklists, which prevents users from choosing passwords that hackers have tried to use in the past, has been enabled through an update major security updates last year. Guild Wars II suffered from safety problems at launch, and ArenaNet has worked to rectify the situation since then.
  • Speaking in September, ArenaNet president Mike O'Brien explained the process of blacklisting password in detail. "We set up a black list of all the passwords that hackers are scanning - is already 20 million passwords and more - and prevent new customers to choose one of these passwords , "he said.
  • "This system substantially eliminates the ability of hackers to steal new accounts, and all new accounts can not match that hackers have explored. Piracy bill rate was 1.5 percent for accounts created before the blacklist was in place, and is about 0.1 percent for accounts created after. "
"Because it was such a success in the protection of new accounts, we want to expand to protect existing accounts, but also harder for us to know if the passwords of existing accounts are known for pirates .. 's Difficult to distinguish between a connection attempt from the client and a real connection attempt by a hacker safe Take therefore the approach and ask all existing customers to change their passwords and blacklist old password worldwide in the process. "
